I decided to read the article. What a load of tripe. "anti-democratic, racially charged, anti-modern, authoritarian"? All the things that progressives are, and he labels us with them. He specifically assigns progressive ideas such as eugenics to this "dark enlightenment" garbage.

My suspicion is that he interviewed this one guy, Moldbug, who I've never heard of, and then decided to lump all the others in with whatever he got from that interview. I mean seriously, Charles Murray the libertarian philosopher, John Derbyshire mathematician, the Captain? Has he read word one from any of these writers or was he so intellectually lazy that he just copied Moldbug's reading list and assigned them all to the so called Dark Enlightenment?

Also just noticed that on the graphic (which appears to have no actual point) he equates conservatism with "procedural foot dragging", an amusing relation given the number of bills that the Republican controlled house has passed which have failed to even have a committee hearing in the Senate, as well as Reid's propensity for ensuring that no opposing viewpoints get heard through manipulation of the rules and procedures.

Congratulations, Captain!! It's not every day that one is libelled so magnificently by a leftard.

I don't see Kate McMillan or Kathy Shaidle on the list. Maybe the leftward hasn't heard of Canada. Omitting Kate is a real pity - for sheer black hatred of leftism and liberalism she is hard to equal (some of us try).
